CNY 2007 and my new gadget on 0221
No updates for 6 days!
Blame it on 《花样少年少女》。 hahaha
Anyway I managed to finish watching the 13 episodes available online over the past few days. Yah , during CNY period.
The only thing I look forward to CNY now is that it gives me an excuse to buy new clothes without that Tiger lecturing on how often i buy new clothes (as if I have the luxury to do that).
Come to think of it, I had only 2 sets for the new year and this morning I overheard her telling her friend in the phone that she has new sets of clothes to last from Day 1 to day 15. Kaoz!
年初一( 18 Feb 07)As usual , visit grandma's (paternal) home.
Took a picture of my sis & and I on the backseat of the car (I have been doing that for the past 2 years) but that din turn out well . Battery went flat immediately despite having recharged it. Come to think of it, since this is the 3rd year I am taking picture of us during CNY, that means my digicam had survived 3 years. Guess it is time to change a new digicam.
Also visited
zi-beh-po's house in the afternoon (same itinerary as prev yrs) where all my father's cousins and their children gathered.
There as expected, came the dreadful question......
I wish i can really say what the Strait Times Life! had suggested , to reply :"
Oh I will get married once I have collected enough angpow money from you stingy relatives." (or something like that. The writer joked that either way u win. cos it's either next yr, u get more ang pow $ from them or u dun get any, cos u are not invited to visit them and u can escape THAT question).
年初二( 19 Feb 07)
Visted lua-peh-gong's house in the afternoon. Had our lunch there before going to our grandma's house. Left grandma's house in the afternoon . Ever since my grandpa passed away, we dun stay long at grandma house. long story....
so from 4pm till night, I was watching 《花样少年少女》on my laptop. Decided to back track to the earlier episodes I had missed. Started from Episode 1 part 1 (there are 7 parts for each epi) to Episode 5, part 7.) By the time I had decided to call it a day, it was past midnight.
年初三(20 Feb 07)
Had a mini TXYs gathering at BR's house. Most of the TXYs who gathered this year had been there last yr. But still, we enjoyed the dishes which BR's mum cooked for us, especially the homemade muah chee. haha.
Then I left them ard 2 hrs later and proceed to Wendy's new house in Bukit Batok, where my poly friends gathered. After a meal of pizza (we ordered 4!) , at 7pm, we all gathered in front of the TV to watch Channel U"s 《花样少年少女》. K.L., the only single guy keep on complain how we gals are so glued to the serial where he dun find it interesting. Hmmm wonder if the other two guys shared the same thoughts but kept silent cos after they would get scolding from their wives.
《花样少年少女》. is a very "man" show, but guess KL dun like it cos no pretty gals for him to watch. :P
年初四 (21 Feb 07) How can I forget this day. It's shi-xiong's birthday. 0221 leh.
Received good news when I got back to work. Pay is in! And decided that I
mai-tu-liao, must get an mp3 player ASAP, cos i'm getting tired of the long journey from home to work.
Hence without checking around for any special offers available, I made up my mind to get an mp3 player on that evening.
I was joking (又讲冷笑话了)that perhaps I should get
SAMSUNG mp3 player. Cos must use
Samsung to play
Sam's Songs.
(乌鸦飞过.....)Well, I did not but Samsung brand but got a Creative Neeon instead. Must support local product mah. Went to the Marina Sq store as suggested by Gor, and saw that Creative is having promotion. I just want a mp3 player with at least 1 gb, that also have FM radio and recording function. Since this 6gb Neeon is selling at a promotional rate of $149, I guess it is a good bargain and hence bought it without much hesitation. Also bought a pack of Stik-ons to personalise the black mp3 player.
As a pic speaks a thousand words, so here I present u:
Initially wanted to use the blue floral stik-ons but decided to use this pink one as it matches my pink mobile phone. (<--click on the words)
Well that's all for today. Shall update on the orientation I had on 22-23 Feb another day.
